12 Juniors and some seniors were at Mearns Castle Golf Academy today for a coaching session. Unfortunately due to the pouring rain the arranged game on the 9 hole course was unable to take place.

However chipping practice and putting followed by lunch was the order of the day. Alyson McGinnigle's Team of Lucy Bannerman, Natasha Qayum and Nicky Wilson were the winners of all the fun competitions

The Ladies Training Squad had an excellent morning's coaching with Karyn Burns at the Mearns Golf Academy on Sunday morning. The emphasis was on the short game and this was followed by 8 of the girls playing a friendly match over 9 holes against the Renfrewshire Boys. It was a very close contest with the honours just going to the boys.

In what otherwise had been a lovely week of weather the last day of their holiday was played in torrential rain. The winning score was a net 58 from an English team with a handicap of 24.

Despite getting no points at the last, his 33 points was enough to lift the trophy for the 1st time in more than 10 attempts. Gordon Fell was runner up despite not scoring at the last 2 holes. Somebody stole his ball at the 17th and 18th !!On the distaff side Carol and Helen scored the same number of points .
